Hey, Chicks in the Office listeners. You can find every episode on Apple Podcasts, Spotify, or YouTube. Prime members can listen ad-free on Amazon Music. What's up, everyone, and welcome back to Chicks in Hogwarts, the Harry Potter Pod, where we recap all of the Harry Potter films. We are now on The Second Movie. We are. Chamber of Secrets.

And we're chugging along. We are. So the first episode, we did the quiz in the beginning. We set the scene. I think we're all, I think we all have to take that quiz again on our own time. We will. Because I don't think we're all Hufflepuffs.

No, and then Natalie was taking it to like for graphics to get the questions. And she said that based on what you select as the answer, you would get a different question. So I think that when you had a tab open. Oh, so I think it just didn't work that I did it all at the same time because I was all,

because I was technically all on like my account. So. Yeah, that's what happened, I think. Yeah. And she got Hufflepuff randomly too. Yeah. Okay, there's no way

we're working with a full team of Hufflepuffalo. There's no way. Absolutely no way. Yeah. But we did that the first episode and a few more episodes we'll discuss that. We'll take the test again afterward.

Yeah, I think we're going to have to do it all in our own. A few movies deep. Let's start off with the notes. Yes, Chamber of Secrets. Chamber of Secrets constantly, and I think about it's one of my favorite scores

when it comes to the Harry Potter movies because of the Fox of Phoenix the do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do. Okay, now you can read your notes. Quite beautiful. Thank you. That was a great intro to my notes. Here I go.

If you have any comments or thoughts, both of you, jump in. Starting from the beginning. Starting from the beginning. Damn, they grew up fast. Grew up fast. Yeah, yeah. Magic.

They really grew up. Crazy how that has. I was thinking about just the time in between filming probably. They had to wait to see how well the movie did and then I got to pick back up. Well, it's just crazy because they, I mean, they filmed them all like fairly rapidly, but it's like, of course they would all grow up. It is just smart that they, you know, originally cast very young kids who'd be able to continue to do it. Thank God.

Yeah, yeah. Imagine they'd have to like get in new people. Yes. Dudley's such a loser. Yep. Dobby is my alter ego. Just because of the way he like feels so. he does something, right? He does something stupid.

Then he feels really, really bad after. But then he does something stupid again. You know what I mean? It's just like, I got a little sense of myself and Dobby. Okay. Would you want a flying car? Would you want a flying car? I mean, yeah, for sure. I would only want a flying car if I was the only one who had the flying car. Or if there were only a select few people.

I wouldn't want all cars to fly because then we're just dealing with traffic again. Yeah, yeah, no, that would be a disaster. And I would like to have, like, control over my... Which they didn't seem to have. No. Draco Malfoy being taller than all of them is unfortunate because it automatically gives him the bully advantage. He's looking down on all of them, making them look small and puny already. So him being taller is good for his character, bad for them.

But it's really not by that much. No, it's not. But the way they film it makes sense a look a lot taller. A little bit more menacing? Yeah. Okay. I think I'd rather throw up slugs than actual throw up. Interesting.

I'm going to have to disagree with you on that one. I genuinely hate throwing up. Everybody hates throwing up. And there's just a plethora of it going everywhere. But just like one slug... Imagine knowing you're... No, no. That's one of my...

That's one of my favorite things about this movie, too, is they're, like, learning new spells and, like, doing new spells. And every spell... Like, so many spells, it's, like, Latin words, and, like, you know, you can find the origin, like, makes sense. You know, Lemos, Maxx was, like, makes sense. right? Like, but Ron just throws that and eat slugs. It's like, is that a spell?

Clearly not, because it backfired. Yeah. Well, bad wand. I feel like Gryffindor wins too much. Okay. That's why everyone wants to be a Gryffindor. No, I know, but it's like, they need to fail sometimes. Just a lot's pufflepuff here. Yeah, yeah. Can we win one? Yeah, it's the thing because they're, um...

For movies sake, I'm not even talking about the team. I'm just talking about for the movie's sake, it's like they always win. What's the point of anything happening if everything can be fixed with a spell? What's the point of anything? Well, not everything can't. Not everything, but Harry breaks his arm. Yeah. Boom, fix.

Not boom, fix. They got to grow his arm back. True, but, you know. Yeah, well, I mean, what's the point of having a movie about magic if they're not doing magic? That's good point. That's why I write down these questions, Fran. I don't write them down for Snide. it's snye

snide I don't snide it's snide I'm just thinking back of the Rhone Frank the Tank video with me and he's like don't be snide and then I get confused

if it's snide or snide anyways I think it's snide whatever I want to carry Dobby around in my back pocket he's so cute love Dobby the chamber of secrets

being open is bad secrets are supposed to be secrets Yeah. Good point. Definitely. A chamber of secrets should remain closed. Should remain chambers. The name alone makes you want to know. Like, what are these? Absolutely. Everybody wants to know the secret. It's a great name for a hidden place. Exactly. Great name for a hidden place. Well, is it? Yes. Wouldn't you want it to be more just like, oh, like, the closet? No, but if you, if you call it that, people are going to be like, what are the secrets?

Good point. Yeah, I guess. But nobody even really knows what it is. Until it's opened again. Yes. You know what I'm saying? Like all those kids didn't know what the Chamber of Secrets was until... But they wanted to know. The Chamber of Secrets has been opened once more. Mowing Myrtle looks like a girl version of Harry Potter.

Fair. There are some similarities. The glasses are very similar. For sure. I'm confused on if we like Professor Snape or not. I'm trying to think of what Snape really does in the second one. Not much. Not much.

But I'm just like, what's his deal? I did like that scene where... He put them against each other. I was like, oh, let's go. Like Harry Potter and the dueling? Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah. I like this movie better than the first. Okay.

When did you have that thought after the dueling? Yeah, midway. I was like, good film. Yeah. Wow, I knew that snake was a foreshadowing. Remember in the first movie? I was like, is that going to be foreshadowing for Slythering? It's not necessarily foreshadowed for Slythering, but foreshadowing of

Harry being able to... Link to Slythering, yes. To Slythering. Hermione is always taking one for the team. She's always taking one for the boys. That she is. Selfless. Yes.

I feel like Malfoy is going to become a good guy one day. Okay. Malfoy's leading a pack of bitches. Yeah, he is. When he's talking to those kids, like, come on. Crabbing Goyle are two of the all-time, funniest henchmen where they just, like, don't do anything. at all. Nothing. Like they don't do anything at all. He's yelling at them. Yeah, he's like, and they're

useless. Yeah, yeah. He's got the glasses when, when after the polygeose potion and they're like, he's like, I didn't know what I could read. Yeah, it, it, it, I was just like, these kids. I actually think crab, side note about crab and goyel, I think, uh, one of them, like, got arrested in real life. In real life. In real life, like, towards the later end, the movies. And he's not in them. And, anymore. Like he's in jail? No, no, like he wasn't in like the other movies. So in 2011,

actor Jamie Wallet, who played Vincent Crabb, was arrested for using a Molotov cocktail during the 2011 London riots. He was found guilty of violent disorder where he admitted to sipping from a bottle of stolen champagne. The actor was cleared of intentionally damaging

or destroying property with the Molotov cocktail that he was pictured holding. apparently the actress that he had an unfortunate he had a difficult time adjusting after the Harry Potter fame. So he threw multiple cocktails around. I don't know. And the 2011 arrest wasn't his first. He was arrested for marijuana or before that. But, you know, well, that's a thing, but it shouldn't be a thing.

And the actor's last, so he, the last role he was in, he played Crabb in Half Blood Prince, but he was not in Deathly Hollow's Part 1 or Part 2. What a downfall. Yeah. It's tough for crab out there. I'm dying to know what the Chamber of Secrets is. Oop, I think I'm about to find out.

Yeah. That was a string of consciousness. Yeah, this became a stream of consciousness. I like Hagrid. People make mistakes. Yes. That's when they thought it was Hagrid who opened up the Chamber of Secrets. One of my favorite things about Hagrid too is truly his, he really just does have a love for all.

like magical creatures. He always will give them a second chance. You know? Everybody deserves a second chance. Come on. Spider, he didn't. It's not his fault. Everyone deserves a second chance.

Tom Riddle being Voldemore has my mind in an absolute tizzy. I'm so confused. Does Voldemore just keep coming back in all different forms? Yes? Is that a yes? That's pretty much a yes.

Thank you. So that just answered a question. Very confusing. But Voldemort just comes back in different shapes and forms. I will say the first, two you definitely get this one

is the most distant from the others like after the end of the first one and you're like oh there is dead he's like spirit whatever you want to call it like there he goes that matters more

to the rest of the movies Tom Riddle is kind of like a one-off chamber of secrets that is defeated because it's like, you know, the memory of Tom Riddle and the diary. Once the diary is destroyed, that is over. So he's done with now. Tom Riddle is done with. The memory, young, young memory Tom Riddle is done with. The Wiesleys are just a bunch of clumsy folk who mean no harm. Yeah.

Folk is very accurate. I have no idea where folk came from. Yeah. Just me watching the movie. My last note, I'm so happy Dobby is free from the Malfoy's, that cute little ugly munchkin. And that's all I have. Oh, okay. Great. I love it.

Those are all very good notes. There are some questions I want to go through as far as meeting new characters. Okay. I don't want this to feel like a quiz, though. No, no, I'm not quizzing him. Not a quiz, not a quiz at all. What are your thoughts of Lucius Mouthful? You've never, this is the first time you're seeing it.

Evil guy? Yeah. Looks very evil. He looks very evil. He has a very menacing look. Very reminiscent to me for the Voltori and Twilight. That's the vibe I guess from him. Good comparison.

And, you know, I don't like him. Yeah. But I'm interested in him. Did you catch him putting the diary in Ginny's cauldron in the store when you watched it or no? No. Neither did I. Yeah. No.

I wasn't, it's not that attentive, you know what I mean? No, no. It's very hard to notice. It's something you don't notice until you watch it like the second time when you already know that that is what happened. What about Lockhart? Big fan. Guildreux. Yeah, big fan.

Big fan Big fan Yeah no I actually He does provide Good comedic relief in this one Because there's not as much Like some of the movies There are like funnier moments

As they go on And he is very much needed In this moment for just being like A giant fraud And it's just funny Kind of seeing like The Celebrity Wizard aspect

Is very much a thing Like when Mrs. Weasley is just freaking out over him signing like their books and whatnot and how he just like wants to be around Harry Potter. That is very funny. And also like Harry Potter himself is famous. Yeah. Weirdly enough. Yeah.

He is. Did you write was the Hermione saving everyone about the pixies? Did you write that down around the pixies? That was about her getting hurt. But it being able to help Ron and Harry. Yes. Okay. That is fair.

Because Lockhart once again like coming in. defense against the dark arts doesn't really teach him much because he's a massive a massive faker. Even during that duel, you could tell he's like a big faker. Oh yeah. No, I don't love Lockhart. He's like, useless. Yeah, that's kind of like.

It's getting everybody. It's just a lying liar that lies. One of my, this is also, I'm trying to think like back to the flying car, wamping willow. The, when did you, did you suspect Dobby had anything to do with those things? No, no. I really didn't question Dobby much. Yeah. When he appeared and like his existence in the world until he started talking about,

um, I forgot the line that he said where he was like, I'm lucky. It was something like sad where he was just like about like the clothes he wears or, or, um, oh, oh, no. Harry threatened to like kill him or whatever it was and and Dobby was like don't worry I I get threatened to killed five times a day yeah yeah and I in my head I was like okay something's up like he's a part of some yeah some sort of abusive family which he was quite literally the Malfoy's um and then they get in trouble for for taking the car and the howlers I wish the howlers were used in more of the movie because that kills me every time.

Ronald Weasley, how dare you steal that gone? I am still stuck on the car. Like, I am absolutely disgusted. Your father's facing an inquiry at work. I... And it's entirely your fault. Like, if you step one toe.

You see, Fran's losing us because we don't know the words. You know what I mean? Straight home. She has them all memorized. Guys, I'm just, you're stuck on the flying cars. Just flying cars in general. It got me thinking. Like, I almost got distracted for not half the movie,

but a little bit after the flying car situation because I was like, hmm, people always talk about flying cars and like if there to happen one day. But I don't think I want that. No. I don't think it will have. I'd rather be on the ground.

What if you run out of gas in the air? You just die. And then you drop? Is there gas issues in the air? You got to make sure you fill up before you go up. problem with planes, air traffic control. I feel like we'd be lower. Yeah. And then do we just have a world above us?

Yeah. In the sky. Right. It's like the Jetsons. Like right, right. That it just becomes a whole thing. Like 2,000 years from now. Yeah. We won't be here. Unless there's a potion that we could take. I would just, I'll take like a hyper loop. That'd be cool in our lifetime. I would like that. Yeah. Yeah. Like the super fast. Like to be like in D.C. and like 30 minutes. Oh, that'd be safe. Like those ones that are, yeah. I think those are really cool. Don't they have those in like Europe and? They're moving. Not not that fast.

Don't they have them in like Tokyo? Elon Musk is the one who's like, oh yeah, well. Still not that fast, but yes, moving in that direction. Elon Musk is like, oh, we'll have it like in five years. Yeah, he's been saying that for a long time, right? He's been saying that for a long time. It's going to take five years just to even get them start building. So I feel like that won't happen.

Yeah. Did you feel, did you guys feel like this took like a little bit of a scarier turn? Like you're starting to see blood written on the walls. So I actually liked the turn. It took. I like when Tom Riddle revealed. himself as Voldemort. I thought that was cool. How about Ginny? Did you like,

when they were like, it's Ginny down there? Yeah, I heard that it gets a little darker. Yeah, it does. And then it also like physically, like literally gets darker. Like the colors that they use, like they get while you're watching, they get darker. I felt, um,

like it was less of a kid movie, which I enjoyed. The first one very much felt like a kid movie. And I still liked it and I enjoyed it. but I wasn't totally locked in. Whereas this one when I was watching it, at the end I was like, shit. You know, like I was like, oh, fuck. Like the whole, like Voldemortem like

coming back in different, like this Tom Riddle thing, like I said, I had my mind in a tizzy. I was like, wait a minute. This man is just going to come back at the end of every movie. Like, he just pops it at the end of every movie. And then Harry continues to kill him at the end of every movie.

But it definitely had... That is how it can confirm that's not how it goes. Yeah. I had a more in-depth feel. Like the first movie we felt very surface level. Like we're just getting the setup. We talked about this though. It makes sense. There's eight movies. Obviously the first one's going to be like a setup.

You know, it was a lot about the games and like learning what the houses are. Whereas this one, it's like, okay, now we know what the houses are. We know what the games are. But we're going to learn more about the things that make up Hogwarts. Hogwarts. Like Chamber of Secrets. There's a lot of things that go into the school. And it's not just the houses. Yeah.

So I feel like it's just more in depth and there's more layers to it now. And the characters are growing up, which Noah said he wasn't going to like the last episode where he likes them as kids. I, in my head, I was like, am I going to like them as kids better? I don't. I like them where they are right now. Yeah. I still like them where they are right now. I think when they're like older, older, and then maybe I'll miss the.

Who knows though? Romance will be involved. Yeah, I guess. All that stuff. Yeah. Do we, that's a snake. Oh, um. Pretty.

I liked it because I felt it was a different kind of villain. Yeah. Like usually villains are in, not human form, but like more tangible. And I liked that it was a snake. Yeah. What do you think? No, I agree. I, the, the way that somehow they're all able to not actually meet the eye of the bass list is very impressive for,

for every character between the camera for Colin and Mrs. Norris in the water and Hermione's she like was starting to catch on so you know the not you didn't have a a moaning Myrtle situation but the

there's a lot of good like more animal stuff in this one too I think where it's the bass list the spiders the um polyjuice potion when Hermione accidentally turns into a cat I'm less Yeah she was coughing up fur balls

Yeah I was less interested in her mind In Hermione in this one She'd feel like she didn't have like a huge part I felt like she didn't have a huge role in this one Which it makes sense Well yeah yeah she did get petrified Yeah right so she isn't able to really come through there

At the end she's not like in those file scenes It is interesting now watching them back again That they that there is there are movies where like It is all three of them And then there's movies where like It's two of them or one's out two So for this one, yeah, definitely it kind of becomes like Harry's moment

to save Ginny. The spiders The spiders used to scare me too And that's all I would always laugh at Ron for being so scared Of the spies. I mean, I'd rather probably go up against a snake Than the spiders.

Spiders are just the feeling of spiders on you. There's a lot of spiders in that forest Yeah. A lot of spiders. Hagrid. Oh, Hagrid. it wasn't a question, it was a statement. I'm more interested in Hagrid now.

Yeah. I think the first one I was less interested in him. I still was, but whatever. I was more interested in him this time. Although... What's my favorite when he comes back? Yeah. I was definitely interested in him when they said that he was the one who opened up the Chamber of Secrets

because I was like, fuck, this is going to be like a good story or whatever. It wasn't actually him. So it was like... Framed. Yeah. So, okay, you didn't actually do that. But I like how he's like, he's kind of just like... like a mentor for them.

And I think we're going to find out more about him. Definitely. So the first one, you know, I asked you like interesting, what characters you were interested the most. We listed them. We talked about them. So let's do that again. But first, guys, I hope you're watching along with us and you're having a great time.

And if you are watching these movies, take some time, relax, chill out, crack open a nice cold cores light and turn on Harry Potter. That sounds like an absolutely magical evening, if I do say so, I'm. myself. There's only one beer out there that's literally made to chill. That's Kores Light. The mounds on the bottles and cans turn blue when your beer is cold. That way you know when it's time to chill. Coors Light is cold loggered, cold filtered, and cold packaged. Like I said, made to chill as crisp and refreshing as the Colorado Rockies. Perfect for a moment to unwind. And the perfect moment to unwind is sitting on your couch, end of your night.

You're in your, you know, you're all relaxed. The work is done. Errons are done. You're all cozy. You crack open a Corz Light, maybe one or two depending, you know, these are long movies, and you turn on a nice Harry Potter film. Coorslight is the one we choose when we need to unwind, so when you want to hit reset, reach for the beer

that's made to chill. Get Coorslight in the new look delivered straight to your door, which is your Instacart, by going to Coorslight.com slash chicks. That's coreslight. com slash chicks. And always celebrate responsibly. This is coming from the Coors Brewing Company, Golden Colorado. So, yeah, I want to go back to what your rating

what, not rating, but your tier of importance for characters. Yeah. We had these were the options. Well, this is the order. I'll we just read the order that you did them for the first one. So the order that of

characters you were interested in the most went Draco, Snape, Ron, Harry, Hermione, Hagrid, Neville, McGonagall, Dumbledore. Any adjustments to that, or do you feel the same? Yeah, no, I'll I mean, here's a thing. Snape kind of just bored me

Yeah So I don't know if I'm less interested in him now or more Yeah I'm more interested in him Yeah I just feel like I want him to be a bigger part Yeah I can't figure it out So I think I'm less

I think I would put Snape above Malfoy at this point I think we So you would start with Snape I would start with Snape I'm gonna move Malfoy down Just because I'm gonna move him even further down Oh so Snape Snape

Hagrid. Then I'll put Malphoy. Okay. Then Hermione. Okay. Take Neville off the list. Not interested in Neville at all. I don't even...

Yep, fair. And then keep the last two the same. God, it will double the other. Yeah. I am more interested in Hagrid now. I'm still very interested in Harry and Ron. They've got me locked in. Are there any ones from this movie that we just met that you would want to add to this list?

No. I mean, I thought that the Tom Riddle stuff was interesting, but he's gone now. Yeah. So if he was still there, I would very much say, I want to know more about him, but we know about him. He's done. Yeah. But once we met him, I was very interested. I'm trying to think.

Lucius Malfoy. No. I feel like we just know. We know what they're about. Will Traco go against his dad? There's more Ginny in the second movie. I'm not too interested in Ginny per se. I'm interested in what happened with her

and her opening up the Chamber of Secers obviously and that's the biggest part of this film but her as a character I'm not too invested in I'm more a little bit more like plot holes I would say in this one when it comes to like Ginny

and the action chamber right I'm more interested in Ron and we're talking Weasley's like I want him to succeed I want him to find his place very fair so then we'll go favorite characters and least favorite characters from this one favorite characters

least favorite characters um Dobby Dobby Favorite yeah okay I really like Dobby He's all over the place but I like him Dobby Ron no

You're saying just favorite just from this movie Yeah just from like Lockhart is my favorite from this one yeah I'll go Dobby Harry I liked Harry in this film We saw a little bit more angst from Harry here

Dobby Harry Hagrid He's becoming much more curious Yeah About his life For sure Dobby Harry Hagrid Ron

You don't have to go through everyone I'm just saying Those are like the top Yeah I won't go through everyone But Definitely I think Harry is always an interesting character

But this one I just felt like He's growing up a little bit more He has a little more angst to him like you said, a little more curious. So, yeah, I liked him in this film. For me, Ron, I think, is up there is just now that I've watched. I've watched this one a bunch.

And this one, like, it just comes back to movies that are moments that I like the most and, like, still laugh at. And that's like, the butterflies, the howler, like all the, the faulty wand. the eat slugs. Like, I really, Ron just is cracks me up in this movie. Yeah.

As far as as as least favorite, I don't know. I think it still goes to I'm going back to like when I was little and was watching these two. Like, Draco was such a little brat.

It was either between him or Lucius because I hated how Lucius. I hated how Lucius treated Dobby. Yeah. I would Lucius just because Draco is a kid. Yeah. So for him, you're like, he, you know, he's wasn't steered the right way. He's a kid. Lucius is an adult.

Right. An evil man. Right. And he's like dropping. Yeah. Evil diaries into little girls. Yeah. Caldrons. This poor little dog. Yeah. I also love the flu powder. They traveled by flu powder

in the beginning when Harry ends up in the wrong place, nocturn alley. Freaky place nocturnally. You'll see more of nocturnality, but that's another one. There's just good one liners in this one where they're like with the Weasleys, that makes me love the Weasleys. Dagonally.

I like how you can just randomly put out a line. I can't. I mean, you've seen it so many times. Yeah. This is a one watch. Yeah. It's one of my... I do slightly become that annoying person who like says the lines out loud when you're watching.

No, that's okay. I do that. I do that drink. that when I watch with Joe. She's the man. Yeah. Amanda Byn is in Cheney Tatum. Very up there with Harry Potter. Yeah. The howler I do every single time.

And Joe's like, can you please, like not? Ronald Weasley. How dare you steal that car? There are some good one-liners in there. If you've seen it a bunch of times. One day, maybe I'll get there. One day. One day.

Noah, did you give a least favor? Are you also on Lucius? I just think that he might not be. be important in the grand scheme in the movie, but anytime I see Dudley on the screen, I'm like, this guy is the worst. He's a loser. He just sucks, yeah.

Yeah, he does. That whole family. Oh, they're terrible. Yeah. Why are they going to die? That was good that Harry, like, stuck up to them, you know. I'm excited, I'm excited for you guys to watch the third one, because the beginning of the, like,

Harry continually finds ways to, like, get in trouble right before school starts. Like, he kind has to leave. And then there's like the confusion of like, he's threatened to do magic. And they're like, you can't do magic. Like, watch me. What? So he's going back.

Harry. To the, to the Dursleys? Yeah. Yeah, I mean, he technically like has to. Like, he doesn't have anywhere to go. Those are his,

those are his, technically his guardians. Well, because he doesn't like, they're, he doesn't live with the Whizley's. I know, but I feel like when he left, when he left, he was like, he left.

Seven kids. He was like, I'm leaving, like any place. is better than here, and then you're going to go back after, like, flying out. You almost can't. It's like, you know, you're still a kid. But it's also like, you can't go unless you're invited. Right, right.

If I was wrong, I'd be like, just stay with me. Yeah, yeah. I mean, those parents don't want. Yeah, yeah. They do have, like, a lot of kids already. Yeah. They have a lot of kids. And it is the, you know, it is a way to keep those, those jerseleys in the, in the conversation.

I like Ron's dad. A little bit longer. Like, like, feel. Dunphy-esque where he was like oh like you flew the car like oh no that's bad yeah yeah and what does he say about the he's like when he says to Harry the tat about the

what is the function of a of a rubber duck it's like he loves muggle stuff loves muggle stuff that's his job but all in all chamber secrets is a is a very entertaining movie I would say like it's non-stop it's long like this is This is a long one.

Two hours and 40 minutes. I was going to say Is every movie this one? I mean, they're all pretty long, but Ascaban is shorter than... I saw that. I saw it as I was like a 2-11. Yeah.

Ascaban is shorter than Chambers are all the eight movies combined, I want to know. Oh, I mean, they've... Eight movies, six... I mean, they're pushing... It's got to be like 20 hours. It's got to be pushing 18 hours.

To watch all eight combined would take a total of 19 hours and 38 minutes. That's almost a full day. A full day. Yeah. It's eight movies. It's a lot of movies. And yeah, when they do run...

But I mean, like, some movies are like an hour and a half. Yeah, yeah. I mean, when they run really long, like, the Chamber of Secrets is very long. I think watching it as like a standalone movie, there, it can get a little confusing. Like, towards then, you're kind of like, wait, what the fuck is happening?

And this, is he a ghost? Is he a memory? What's happening? Like, it is, it is, it translates differently, I would say, book to movie than a lot of the other book to movie. I guess the books are really long too, right? Yes, the books are very long as well. Um, so shall we, I didn't write down what our what our Sorcer Stone scores were that we gave. Mine was a, I think I did a 7-8. Yeah,

I'm pretty sure maybe a 7-2. Yeah, I think mine was, no, no, yours was a 7-2. Your's to then lower. Yours was definitely 7-2. Mine was like a 6.5 or 6.4 or something like that. Yes. Yeah. Okay. So, I will write it down for Chamber of Secrets. So Chamber of Secrets, any other moments anybody wants to talk about before we get final scores? I think I wrote down everything that I thought was interesting. I like when they confronted Lockhart. Like they're like more confident now.

Yeah. Push him down the thing. Yeah. Yeah. I'm going to give it a 7.6. Okay. Wow, that's a big jump for you. It is.

I liked it a lot better than the first. I will say I wasn't like, yes, I'm obviously in, but I wasn't completely sold. Yeah. After the first movie. This one, I'm definitely more interested to watch the third one. Yeah. It took me a little longer to watch the second one from the first one, whereas now I'm like excited to watch the third one. Understood.

I would say I'll give it a 7.3. Oh, so you like this one less. Yeah. Just overall like. Yeah. Interesting. I'm actually, I'm actually on the same page. with you is that one I do love's chamber of secrets but just like full movie grade wise

uh I did seven two sorcerer stone this is like this is a flat seven for me interesting seven oh maybe I wonder everyone will get into the eights yeah I don't I don't want to take my score back but I'm just gonna keep it I will tease that mine does start to jump once that what is your favorite movie the third one is one of my favorites my sister also said the third one is her really that's why i'm excited besides like you know of course like i love the last the end ones but um the third one is up we'll do it we can go like every we can rank them when we get to the end but the third one is up there for me yeah my sister said the third and fourth are her two favorites yeah so yeah then i just yeah this is a good it's also a

good movie just for meeting um you meet new characters like one two three you really meet new characters and like three you meet people that are very important you know sometimes one and two like you see people like like lockhart not coming back yeah this is it this is it this is ipp this is this movie did you watch the uh post credit scene no with him i didn't watch it when i watched the movie but then to refresh my memory i watched this like youtube video and i i didn't realize there was a post credit scene i didn't know that harry potter was into the post credit scenes i kind of had a feeling there was a postcarded scene when I saw there was 10 minutes left. Yeah.

From when the movie ended and I was like, I got to go back. But it was like a funny thing, right? Yeah, yeah, yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Like his story now. Yeah. It's just like he's like he doesn't remember like anything. He's just like, yeah.

That's funny. Yeah. That doesn't really continue to be a thing. Yeah. What do you think? Rod Tomato score for the first two guess? Oh, I don't know. I don't think I've ever, I don't think I've ever actually looked at.

to the rotten tomato scores for the Harry Potter movies because I feel like it'll make me angry. Guess for the first two. Sorcer Stone, I would go like 60. In Chamber of Secrets, like 55. I'm going to go 43 and 52. The first one has an 81. And the second one has an 82.

Oh, I was just going lower because based on your reaction. I know. The way he said like, you see their Ron Jaze. I was like, shit, how low are they? Interesting. The budget for the second one is lower than the one for the first one. The budget for the second movie is 100 million, it says, and the first one is 125 million. Start with a bang.

You got to pull people in. Interesting. It's the first time. I feel like also they probably, like you need more money to fully create the wizarding world. to start off and then maybe you don't have to like the second one you don't have to build as many things. Also funny that the director's name is Chris Columbus. Chris Columbus. That is pretty funny.

So the third one, the third one everyone, the third one is very different. You guys are going to sense it right off the bat. It's a different director. So Alfonso Caron does the is the third one. Obviously very famous director. Yeah, yeah. What movie did he do that was nominated recently? I believe he did the space movie, right?

with um oh gravity gravity yeah he did gravity yeah right he did gravity Roma yes yes yes interesting uh interesting oh so the third one's got to be children of men yeah i've never seen that i've never seen Roma i just saw gravity yeah interesting yeah so it has a it has a different feel why did they switch director um why did they switch director um why did they switch directors. Like it seemed like it was going well. No, I know. They kind of talked about it in the special and now I forget.

Yeah. Because they talked to all the directors and they, but I think like, I think Chris Columbus it was just like a lot. Like I think he still had to discover new land. He still a producer on the on the movies, but I'm not sure. He said he did, oh yes, he said he always felt guilty leaving the, the, the, the, cast, but that he was just emotionally and physically exhausted

after doing the two movies. He said Sorcerer Stone apparently Sorcerer Stone took 160 days of shooting, which is ridiculously long. And then immediately after they stopped shooting, they started shooting Chamber of Secrets, which was another 160 days. So that's roughly 320 days.

That's a full year for both movies. He said he, this was an interview from 2011. he said that he could barely speak and felt emotionally and physically exhausted taking care of ones. Mental health is absolutely legitimate. So he said he wanted to see his kids. He was missing dinner. He had like really young kids at that time and he like didn't get to see them.

And as a producer, like he didn't have to be there all the time. So we got to spend more times. But yeah, that is what he said during the reunion. I forget because in the reunion he brought up, he was like, I did always feel like really guilty about. leaving because they had like created a good bond and because he had like young kids he felt like he was like being a dad to like all these really young actors which is also like kind of emotionally draining just a lot to take on in general to like especially when he did the first

two so he's working with them at their youngest when they were you know it's hard to get a room of 11 year olds to like fully pay attention and do what they need to do the first two movies were released on the same exact day november 14th 2001 November 14th, 2002. I didn't realize there's only a year. That is actually crazy how quickly they grew up. Holy shit. Yeah.

I thought there would be a lot more time in between. Well, think about like, when you're in like middle school, you change fast. True. 11 to 12 to 13th. Yeah, you could have a grosser. Like, you look. Six to seven to eighth grade. Like you can look so different.

True. Oh, and then the third one is 2004. Third, prisoner of Askeban is when. Damn, third one is. Drake. You'll see. Draco has, like, looks so much. They all do, but Draco looks so much older in the third one.

And that was when, that's when I was like, hmm. Tom. Maybe I kind of like him. He stops doing the full, like, slicked back. Interesting. Yeah. Anyway, I don't want to talk too much about the third one because we'll do that after you guys. Watch.

So I think that wraps it up for Chamber of Secrets. This is a good one. We got a lot of good discussion. Met some new characters. Ready to move on. And there will continue to just be so much more. I'm excited because now like pieces start to fall, you know? I'm excited as well.
